  • Everyone is being very serious.

    When I got my first smartphone, circa 2009, I left it on the toilet paper holder in the employee bathroom at my work. I didn't realize I had lost it until I went to clock out and my boss handed it to me and laughed at me for taking a shit on the clock.

    The worst part is, I didn't even use the toilet; I went in there to adjust my pants and redo my belt, and I took my phone and my wallet out of my pockets and set them down on the nearest surface.

    I'll never forget my boss's face when he called me out. He was a nice guy, but it was super embarrassing.

  • What a great point. I guess one reason could be that the glasses don't reliably help with those tests.

    The people making those videos have probably tried taking the tests again, but they don't upload the footage because they realize the glasses don't do shit.

  • I feel a little purple balled. I didn't realize it was the first video in a series and I was surprised when it abruptly ended.

    I'm super colorblind and I've known these things are a scam since I first started seeing the videos of dudes crying. Sometimes people will recommend these glasses to me and I'll have to break their heart and tell them those happy videos they've seen are almost certainly staged, or at least over exaggerated.

    I'd love to be able to see colors better, but I just don't think it's in the cards.

  • Same! I liked the first one a lot, but after a while I just didn't want to play it anymore. In retrospect, I think it was the ridiculous amount of dialogue that turned me off. Each bit of progress was met with a 10 minute conversation between pretty bland characters. I imagine this one will be similar, but I'll just resolve to get through it.

  • I just don't understand why the especially weird stuff like "swarm" or "elf" has to be part of their... gender?

    I've seen someone reference pyrogender, the gender that feels like fire, but certainly that would fall under some other parameter besides gender, right? Maybe ethnicity or species or something, but certainly not gender lol
